No MMS pics on TMO T989

On the Tmobile network, no pictures are received. I spent an hour with customer support on New Years Eve, trying to view what would have gotten my GF beads on Mardi Gra, but TMO CSR said they have had problems since Dec 15 on Samsung phones, in particular the T989. It can not receive MMS pics, and has a difficult time sending them, took 30 min for one pic to go out, either wifi or on the network and no work around.

Generous tech supt offered to issue me a $1 credit on my bill. Will be going back to my local store for a refund on Monday.

Blurry MMS

I'm using a custom rom and when I receive pics they are small and blurry. I always come across this problem with certain roms...but this particular rom I love it and really dont want to change right now so that's why now i'm taking the time to try and find a fix. Any help? :confused:

What a great site with some great developers. I just purchased a new vibrant from ebay and have been having a lot of fun with it. Originally flashed to team toxic crazy 8, then decided to try the bionix 1.3.1, after using Odin to flash back to the original vibrant rom. Thanks to all involved for all the how to's and the developers for creating awesome roms.
[General Questions and Answers] Poimandres:
I know that the guides state to use Odin to flash back to factory before changing to another rom, how many people here actually do this every time? It appears that I may be flashing often and trying alot of different roms and I was wondering if this was a necessary step every time.
[General Questions and Answers] Poimandres:
Ok so I just flashed back to factory then to the new team toxic d9 rc1 rom, unless I am missing something I am unable to find launcher pro. I guess this would need to be installed separately? Does anyone know if the crazy 8 themes will work on d9?
[General Questions and Answers] Poimandres:
It appears that d9 rc2 will be released shortly. Is it a good idea to odin first on upgrades as well? I believe that I read somewhere that that wasn't necessary however i do not want to create a brick.

I am playing around with the Samsung 30-pin to USB female adapter and the 30-pin to SDHC adapter that my friend bought for her 10.1.

When I plug either of them in, dmesg indicates that an accessory-unknown is connected and online. When I unplug it, dmesg says accessory-unknown is offline.

Now I know from experience in the past with using cell phones as modems back in the good ol' days when there was no such support for Linux, I was able to instantiate the device using some sort of ID and creating a /dev/something for it. Does anyone know about this kind of experimentation? I believe, if I can figure this out, I can make a script for mounting storage connected via these adapters (at least for rooted tabs).

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] DenimTornado:
I think you are right! USB host is works in 2.3
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] rustyshack3:
USB OTG actually goes way back. My old Eclair tablet supports it! I think even my Cupcake one before that did too. Just depends on how the kernel is compiled. I think I will try seeing how the dev gets set with the Samsung keyboard, and go from there.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] rustyshack3:
Here is a snippet from another forum that shows what I am looking for:

You can look up the specific attributes to match in “/sys/bus/scsi/devices/[devicenumber]/”

When I connect the adapter, dmesg says ... ACCESSORY_ID : ADC value = 2741.

I believe this is the "devicenumber" from above, but I can't find a file with that name anywhere in /sys/bus/*

Still digging. If anyone else wants to join me, this may help.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] lardman:
Have you plugged something into the female usb port to get that value?

The message in question comes from Kernel/drivers/misc/30pin_con.c

One interesting line or two in there is the following:

#ifdef CONFIG_USB_S3C_OTG_HOST
// check USB OTG Host ADC range...
if(adc_val > 2700 && adc_val < 2799) {
s3c_usb_cable(USB_OTGHOST_ATTACHED);
}
#endif
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] rustyshack3:
Yeah, the value is different if it is just the adapter vs the adapter with a usb device. I have a usb to microSD that I am plugging into the 30-pin to usb adapter.

I have had the Yao-Bao since a couple of days after launch. They last at least one day with texting, calling, facebook etc...usually last me at least 2 days with light use. I can play music for 12 hours during work, and next day be down to about 30% with some texting and internet during the 12 hours. But do not drop them. I dropped one and the contacts moved and do not make contact with the phone contacts, take the grey tape off and it looks like it is cheaply made! Also I use Seido external battery charger.

I've been using the Seidio 3500mah. While it adds bulk, I'd say well worth it: extends my battery life about 60%.

One thing I can report is the accompanying case is rather useless. It only covers the side of the device and just adds bulk.

[EVO 4G Accessories] DocEsq:
I have been using the Seidio 3500mah for over a year now and am happy with it. It does add bulk and weight to the device and forget about using an regular case/cover as it will not fit. The only thing I have noticed is that for the last 2-3 months I get an early drain of the battery at the start of the day by about 20%. It still lasts me all day but find that I now have to charge it at times a few hours earlier than I use to.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hchxoom:
Samsung's site indicates the sgs2 has hardware encryption, but I can't find anything describing how to use it. Can anyone here offer any guidance or leads?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RocketSled:
If anything it looks like the GS2 might be "Self Encrypting". Self Encrypting devices generate an internal random "key" when initialized and then use that to encrypt-and-store/decrypt-and-read data to/from the physical storage media (in the case of an HDD, a disk platter, in the case of an SSD or the Phone, Flash Chips).

You (the user) can't control the process, there's no way to specify the key or whether or not the encryption occurs. But if you were to disassemble the phone and remove the Flash chips, you wouldn't be able to (easily) extract data from those components.

If you password protect/lock you phone, if someone wanted to get data off the internal Flash chip(s), this prevents them from doing so. Accessing the data unencrypted would require the phone to be unlocked, first.

The external Flash doesn't have any capability to encrypt as far as I can tell, but if Sammy put an AES-certified encryption engine in to the phone's silicon, odds are there's a method to gain access to the HW, and applications could probably be written to take advantage of it for something like "external" storage...

I don't remember of voice traffic is encrypted or not. I suspect "not", at least not by default. But it's certainly possible Sammy included the feature for this purpose as well.

I was testing out the new DROID X & it feels a lot smoother quicker than my EVO 4g. I thought the phone was clocked in at faster speeds since the performance was noticeably better however its at 1000mhz & my evo is at 998....How is the Droid X faster/smoother ect & better batt life?
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
It's a completely different phone with different OS.
[EVO 4G General] Febby:
It isn't a different Operating system, it just has a different UI/software above the operating system, almost like touchwiz, htc sense, motoblur etc.
[EVO 4G General] PhxkinMassacre:
Most likely a better gpu (graphics chip) keep in mind this phone is roughly a year and a half old which is like 73826294926624 years in tech time haha btw it will say 1ghz or 1000mhz but that's what the evo said to. Its really 998 also like evo since I believe it has the same processor (don't quote me on that tho)
[EVO 4G General] potna:
I second the point reguarding your old used phone vs new phone. If your reinstall your os it will mist likely get that old snappiness back.

Or it could simply be a sense vs motoblur...or what ever they Called their overlay.
[EVO 4G General] Pivo187:
Could be the sense vs moto...but then again Im not using sense but ASOP...just seems the iphone & droid x are both smoother & quicker than the EVO..
[EVO 4G General] otaku1984:
EVO for sure. 8 users on hotspot instead of 5 (stupid Verizon), actually has unlimited data (stupid Verizon again), actually tethers Wi-Fi (USB tether obviously), 4G, and 3G (Droid X can only do 3G)

EVO for sure. My bro has a Droid X2 and has so many problems with random reboots and other issues that hes planning on upgrading to the galaxy nexus soon. My EVO seems far smoother then his Droid X2... but im running MikG 2.6 sense 2.1 + 3.0 so stock may be different.

Hi.

Just wondering if it's possible for me to remove the Power Off popup which appears just before the phone restarts, goes into recovery etc.

I'm not shy with having to alter files either, so whatever it takes I'd like to know...

This is for a Deodexed JVT 2.3.5.

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bitblaster:
Can you please explain how did you do it?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] djb77:
I just took Perka's advice and it worked out.

The files that needed editing are in the android.policy.jar file located in /system/framework/

I compared Perka's android.policy.jar file against mine and updated GlobalActions files that are associated with the Reboot, Shutdown etc.

It's not too hard especially if you have some kind of programming background.

My next project is to work on the 10 lockscreen mod.

I know cosmetic repairs aren't covered in the TEP but would sprint still repair cosmetic defects? I dropped my E3D on the concrete and smashed in the aluminum housing on the corner of it. So basically will sprint repair at all or should I go to a third party repair person?

If you're rooted, flash a stock sense rom. They might give you a new phone, but they also might repair it. Depends on how bad the damage is.
[HTC EVO 3D] KB112:
Physical damage would go through Assurion. So you'd be paying $100 and getting a new phone. Or you can buy your own housing, the white housing has a group buy going right now fyi. Then you can follow one of the youtube tutorials and you're back in business.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Edit: it seems to me that since Qualcomm released their platform resources for ICS, EVERY dev working on ICS for Sensation has become very quiet:-) None of my information sources I use has had an update since then.
